Defective Products Lawyers for Calgary and Alberta

Most people are not familiar with the phrase “product liability.” This bit of legalese is really just the lawyer’s way of saying that a manufacturer or seller of a product can be held responsible if that product is defective or faulty in some way. If a defective product has injured you, the manufacturer or seller has a responsibility to compensate you for your injuries. This responsibility applies to all kinds of products, including:

Many people assume that if they were injured as a result of using a product, it must be because they did something wrong or failed to follow instructions. But just because you suffered an injury when using a product doesn’t mean it was your fault. The product may not have been properly designed, manufactured, or sold. It may not have been properly labeled, or come with the right instructions. Sometimes, products are poorly designed or inherently dangerous, and the manufacturer or seller may have failed to warn people of a product’s dangers, or failed to explain how to properly use it. A piece of candy suitable for an adult might be a choking hazard for a child. Perhaps a product formerly thought safe, such as lead paint or asbestos, is now recognized as dangerous.
